Beth Smith, a dairy farmer from Tatong, spoke at our July meeting. Beth explained some of the difficulties dairy farmers are currently facing with low milk prices and dairy companies demanding they pay back money they have been paid. Many dairy farmers have already spent that money doing improvements to their farms and will now be forced to borrow to pay this money back to Fonterra. Despite the difficulties Beth seemed positive about life as a dairy farmer.
